Agenda Item Text:
Adopt Resolution 11-36 authorizing the Distribution of FY 2011 Local Transportation Assistance Funding II Awarded from the Arizona Department of Transportation to Cochise County
Background:
Cochise County has received $45,543.08 of Local Transportation Assistance Funding (LTAF II) from the Arizona Department of Transportation. LTAF II funding must be used for public transportation purposes only. Since the County does not have a public transportation system, the County used the same process from previous LTAF II funding years by soliciting applications from local transportation providers to apply for the LTAF II funding received by the County. Transportation providers must serve the general public, elderly persons, persons with disabilities, welfare recipients or low-income persons needing transportation for work related purposes.
On August 1, 2011 the Board of Supervisors held a work session to discuss and review the applications received from local transportation providers. At this work session the Board provided direction and determined the following award/distribution amounts to local transportation providers:
Provider Award
City of Bisbee $6,000.00
City of Sierra Vista $5,000.00
Catholic Community Services $6,000.00
Cochise County Assoc. for the Handicapped $6,000.00
Douglas Assoc. for Retarded Citizens $8,000.00
Northern Cochise Community Hospital $6,643.08
Town of Huachuca City $2,000.00
Volunteer Interfaith Caregiver Program $3,500.00
Wynne Chapel $2,400.00
Approval of Resolution 11-___ will authorize distribution of FY11 LTAF II to the local transportation providers within Cochise County.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):
